CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:NONCOMMUTING CHARGES: BRIDGING THEORY TO EXPERIMENT\n\nNoncommu
 ting conserved quantities have recently launched a subfield of\nquantum th
 ermodynamics. In conventional thermodynamics\, a system of\ninterest and a
 n environment exchange quantities—energy\, particles\,\nelectric charge\
 , etc.—that are globally conserved and are\nrepresented by Hermitian ope
 rators. These operators were implicitly\nassumed to commute with each othe
 r\, until a few years ago. Freeing the\noperators to fail to commute has e
 nabled many theoretical\ndiscoveries—about reference frames\, entropy pr
 oduction\,\nresource-theory models\, etc. Little work has bridged these re
 sults\nfrom abstract theory to experimental reality. This work provides a\
 nmethodology for building this bridge systematically: we present a\nprescr
 iption for constructing Hamiltonians that conserve noncommuting\nquantitie
 s globally while transporting the quantities locally. The\nHamiltonians ca
 n couple arbitrarily many subsystems together and can\nbe integrable or no
 nintegrable. Our Hamiltonians may be realized\nphysically with superconduc
 ting qudits\, with ultracold atoms\, and with\ntrapped ions.
